[Milsurplus] No deep pockets - Any takers in Texas?

[gl4d21a at juno.com]

Ed:

Actually, I don't think so.  Two things:  I'm pretty sure no BC-610s ever got to DRMO or its predecessor.  MARS siphoned off everything desirable before it got to DRMO, and much Army stuff went through other disposal channels anyway.  And this stuff was supposedly stored for ~ 20 years somewhere, meaning the owner likely went SK back in the '80s.  So, it was already junk by then, meaning it was likely from the 40s or 50s, again more likely MARS issue than DRMO sales.  Has anyone examined the photos carefully enough to identify and date the newest material to establish a time frame?

Betcha most, if not all, of that junk came from the (now gone) DRMO at 
Kelly AFB.
